we are deeply disturbed by the chilling impact this decision will have to crush dissent
Give me a fucking break. As a legislator, you have no shortage of ways to dissent including access to media, the ability to speak on the floor of the legislature, and the ability to vote on legislation. What you can’t do, if you want to keep your job is not show up for work every time you know you’re going to lose a vote so that the legislature can’t do business.
